Blake Lively Called Ryan Reynolds' Intimate Scenes "Torture" During Her Interview With Jimmy Fallon
Tell us how you really feel, Blake... Credit to the actress who is always an open-book during interviews, similar to husband Ryan Reynolds. Lively has taken on several interviews with Jimmy Fallon in the past, though one moment in particular got lots of attention. Lively opened up about what it really feels like to watch an intimate scene with Ryan Reynolds involved. She didn't give the typical Hollywood answer, calling it "business." Instead, she referred to his edgy scenes in Deadpool as "torture."
Lively explains with Fallon, "I was on a plane with my baby, James. It's kind of torture these days because I'm on a plane and everywhere I look, every screen is my husband in sex montage throughout the holidays with another woman."
"Everybody wants to watch Deadpool on the plane. Everyone!" "But like for 14 hours having your husband having mashed potatoes eaten out of his butthole—because that's in the film—is lovely. It's a cruel and unusual form of torture," she added.
"And then my daughter goes, 'Da-Da!' She starts hugging and kissing the screen and waving at him, and he's not waving back. She doesn't understand why he's not waving back at her, because she thinks it's like FaceTime. And it's because Daddy's getting it, and the mashed potatoes..."
Great to see Lively showing her human side, explaining that these situations do in fact get to her. The interview moment had over 15 million views and, as expected, fans had a lot to say.
Fans Appreciated Blake Lively's Response, Not Giving A Typical Celebrity Answer
A near 2K fans chimed in, giving their thoughts on Blake Lively's interview alongside Jimmy Fallon. For the most part, it was nothing but support for Lively, as fans appreciated her honesty.
The most liked comments of the video post read, "That must be tough. I'm glad an actor finally admits the sex scenes are difficult, instead of saying, "it's part of the job!" "its acting!"
"It takes this beautiful kind of craziness to blend with Ryan's beautiful kind of craziness to create happiness in this world! I love them both!"
On the contrary, certain fans weren't exactly pleased with Jimmy Fallon's hosting duties during the interview. A comment with 6.7K likes wrote, "Jimmy is a nice guy but sometimes I wish he would shut up and let the guest speak. It was like when kids interrupt parents in the middle of a conversation."
In truth, it wasn't the first time Jimmy Fallon was put on the spot for interrupting guests. Heck, Dakota Johnson herself called Fallon out during her time on the show.
Blake Lively Also Revealed How Ryan Reynolds Reacts To Her Intimate Scenes
In a different interview alongside Good Morning America, Blake Lively revealed how Ryan Reynolds reacts to intimate scenes. Lively stated that things are made a lot easier given that Ryan is in the business.
"In general, it’s nice to have someone who understands what you’re doing. Especially because our job is so weird."
She continues, "It’s helpful to know when you’re acting that you’re in a relationship with someone else, that that’s not what’s actually happening. Because I have friends who aren’t married to someone who’s in the business and they’re like, “Oh, so you’re not actually making love in that scene?” And I’m like, “No, no, no, no, definitely not.”’
In recent news, Blake Lively was at the Super Bowl alongside Taylor Swift. Reynolds, of course, showed his sense of humor, posting a photo of his Deadpool trailer, while asking fans if they saw his wife.
“Has everyone seen the #Deadpool trailer? Also has anyone seen my wife?" Reynolds wrote.
